I wouldn't have them euthanized just because they are little. I take in small kittens all the time.
I don't use KMR. I use Fox Valley. They sell all kinds of milk for all kinds of animals. Better IMHO than KMR and cheaper. You have to mail order it though...I keep about a pound of the powder on hand at all times, but I take in a lot of litters. http://foxvalleynutrition.com/main/home.asp Sometimes little kittens just die and there is nothing you can do:( As I am sure you know mortality among kittens is really high:(. Is the little one eating? If he won't suck you can feed from a syringe. Drooling doesn't appear to be a great sign: http://maxshouse.com/kitten_care.htm ----- Original Message ----- From: catatonya <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sunday, July 16, 2006 7:52 pm Subject: anyone got advice for me tonight? urgent!
